"Up on Ilkley moor grouse
butts have been taken apart in a further action. We are well aware of
how Bradford City Council have conspired to trade in cruelty to shift
responsibility for managing the moor onto a shooting and conservation
(!) group.

We guess the costs for this
venture are increasing. The prestige of presiding over Rombalds moor is
diminishing. We ask Bradford City Council and the Bingley Moor Partnership
to back out of plans to profit from blasting Ilkley grouse apart, and
in turn commit to leaving Ilkley moor as a place where grouse and other
animals can live without the threat of shotguns, larsen traps or fen traps
and any of the other hideous methods used by gamekeepers.

This action is dedicated to
Anne Hawksworth, Bradford councillor and cheerleader for the shoot.
